3. Chapter 3-learning

We had been talking to her, explaining things to her for well over an hour now.

“Yes that and you are also all ….all….”

“Vampires” Carlisle repeated again

“I know its hard sweetie, but you must believe us and I know we all sound like a bunch of loonies but it is true.” Esme started. It was hard to not believe her when she used her mothering tone of voice.

“We’re all very fast, strong and powerful and Edward has a special talent also” she continued “he can read minds”

Rosalie turned and glared at me. I hid my face behind the book I was reading.

“Can he read my thought at anytime?” Still looking at me although the question was directed at Esme.

“Yes I can as long as you are within a certain distance.” I decided to answer her myself.

I knew she would be blushing if she could and I couldn’t help but smile. She was thinking about the first time we met and what she was thinking then. I didn’t even have to read her mind to know that.

I got up and walked out of the room swiftly to make sure she didn’t have to endure and more embarrassment on my behalf.

My line of thought trailing of on how nice it must’ve been to see her blush bright red.

But she wouldn’t and I knew that. What’s more was the fact that I knew whose fault it was and, yet again it was Royce who had caused this unfortunate series of events to unfurl before my very eyes.

My thoughts were now becoming angrier by the second and I knew I needed to calm myself down .Before I completely lost it. I started pacing around the room and Carlisle kept talking to Rose.

Beautiful Rose.

Why Rose? Anybody but Rose

I had to get out of this house and soon. There were people around and I didn’t want them to see me in a rage.

“I’m going to hunt” I told Carlisle

He gave me a meaningful look it took me a moment to look at his thoughts and see what he was thinking before he realized what he wanted.

“NO!” I made Esme and Rosalie jump. “No way am I taking Her hunting”

I pointed angrily to Rose.

“You can teach her ‘cause I’m not going to.”

“Please Edward she needs to learn some how.”

“Yeah and you can teach her”

“Edward don’t be unreasonable” Esme cut in suddenly “I thought it would be good if someone roughly the same physical age could teach her. Carlisle taught me so why won’t you teach Rose?” She put emphasis on the word physical so I couldn’t argue that I wasn’t the same age as her. “I find people tend to understand each other better when they are about the same age.”

“Esme” I turned to face her properly “I am not being unreasonable. You are the ones being unreasonable and plus it was different for you and Carlisle you were together then.”

And with that I stalked out of the room. And started running as fast as I could out of the house and into the nearby woods.

My head whipped up suddenly. I smelt Deer. The hunt was on and I was running as fast as I could toward that delicious scent.
